Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Graded Schools in the United States of America In view of the growing interest in Secondary Education in the United Kingdom and the important problems awaiting solution, the Gilchrist Trustees decided in the early part of 1893 to send five women teachers to America, for the purpose of studying and reporting upon Secondary Schools for Girls and Institutions for the Training of Women in different parts of the States. The Trustees made their intention widely known, and invited the governing bodies of the various women's colleges and associations of teachers to submit to them names of persons specially qualified. The Trustees received in this way a list of some of the ablest and most experienced women teachers in the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the American System of Graded Free Schools: To the Board of Trustees and Visitors of Common Schools It is hardly possible to overrate the evils consequent upon a frequent change of teachers, for scarcely any two persons have the same methods, and the one who follows has no opportunity to become acquainted, by actual observation, with the condition of the school, or the methods of his predecessor. The one has departed, before the other arrives. He enters the school a stranger to the children and the parents, unacquainted with the relative propensity and aptitude, the disposition and habits of the different scholars, ignorant of the course pursued by former teachers, and with the prospect, probably, of retir ing himself at the end of three or four months. The progress of the school must, therefore, be delayed, while he is learning his position; the work which was begun by his predecessor will be arrested, in many cases, perhaps, be performed over again, and thus the children will often spend the whole period of his term, in retracing their steps in a new book, or according to a new plan. Under such a state of things, there will be movement, but little real progress. Scarcely less will be the injurious consequences resulting from frequent interruption in the session of the school, and from long vacations, which render it necessary to dwell much longer on the different subjects of study.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Normal School Systems of the United States, Vol. 2 In some cases, the writer has referred to certain states as having one normal school, when very recently this policy has been departed from and one or two new institutions established. These schools are too new to have effected conditions, so that in com paring results, there is no injustice in classing these common wealths with states which have never departed from the one central school idea.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the United States This textbook is based on the plan of study recommended for the seventh and eighth grades by the Committee Of Eight Of the American Historical Association. The work for the sixth grade has been given in a shorter book, entitled Introductory American History. About two-thirds Of that book concern the beginnings in Great Britain and Europe of the civilization which the people of the United States share with other peoples Of European race. The remainder contains descriptions Of the discoveries and early settlements of America, principally in the sixteenth century. This volume for the upper grades Opens with a chapter which repeats briefly the story of early discovery and settlement. The chapter may be used as a review in those schools which use the Introductory American History. Teachers who do not use that book will find in the chapter the essential facts of the period. American history is so rich and varied that the most serious ques tion which confronts the authors Of a textbook is that of selection and emphasis. If space is to be found for adequate treat ment Of the most characteristic features of our national develop ment, especially Of those within the comprehension Of the pupil Of the seventh or eighth grade, certain phases Of the political and military history Of the country must be reserved for later study.

Download or read book Classroom Libraries for Public Schools Classic Reprint written by Buffalo Public Library and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classroom Libraries for Public Schools The first purpose of this graded list is to furnish to teachers a convenient cata logue Of the books which the Public Library has to this date devoted to school use. We hope, by having such a list, to secure the aid of the teachers in the choice of each classroom library, so that the books may be suited to the age and capacity of the Children, and helpful both to teachers and pupils in connection with the course of study. The list is only tentative, and other books will be added from time to time, both from old books found to be needed and from new books published, as the wants of the schools require and the resources of the library will permit. The library will be very glad of suggestions from teachers, both as to changes in the list and the addi tion of new books. The selection of the books and the division into grades was first made on the basis of the reading from the Children's Department of the Public Library. The first selec tion and division was very carefully revised after trying the books in the classrooms of ten schools for a full year. The assignment of the books to the different grades has been changed and modified, particularly in the subjects of travel and history, to meet the requirements of the course of study. For instance, Cofiin's books on United States history have been continued into the ninth grade, although they are not above the comprehension of much younger readers, because American history is studied in this grade, and these books are found very useful and are much sought after. Librarians, superintendents of education and teachers in other cities, to whom the list may come, will find it Open to criticism, both as to books omitted, books included which perhaps should have been left out, and as to the assignment to grades. After a longer trial of the books by further use, and a larger experience by the com pilers, we will try to issue a better and fuller list with subject entries. The suggested list of reference books is also only tentative. It is added because it is a part of our plan to build up a good reference library in each school. The entire amount of the state appropriation awarded to those schools under the library care will be expended for this purpose each year, the Public Library furnishing all the books for the pupils' home reading.

Download or read book The Graded School Speller Vol 5 Classic Reprint written by Frank Ellsworth Spaulding and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-07 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Graded School Speller, Vol. 5 The most important features which characterize the books of this series are the following: words are presented at the same time in columns and in use; they are used not in dry, isolated sentences, but in sentences naturally connected in describing the manifold interests, occupations, and experiences of childhood, in telling children's classic stories, in biographies of great men, in describing historical events, in explaining the chief features of the government of city, state, and nation. All this matter is carefully graded both in respect to the words and the thought, and is pre sented in a way to interest and instruct. The pupil is conscious of the meaning and the use of the word as he learns to spell it. If the context does not make the meaning of a word clear to a pupil, it does enable him to use his dictionary intelligently in getting the meaning of the word. By means of this method of presentation words are reviewed, many of the more difficult ones repeatedly. This review is not a mere mechanical repetition of the isolated word; each time the word recurs it is in use. This is the most effective kind of review. At the same time the meaning of the word is becoming, for the child, broader, fuller, and more clearly defined.

Download or read book An Outline of the American School System written by Jesse Collings and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of the American School System: With Remarks on the Establishment of Common Schools in England The description of the American Common School System contained in the following pages, is derived from the Report of the Rev. J. Fraser, M.A., Assistant Commissioner, who was sent to America to inquire into the method of education which prevails there. The study of this full and impartial Report shows how all important the American authorities regard this question, and how completely both Government and people rely on the diffusion of the means of education for the success of their institutions, and the general prosperity of the country. All the thought, care, and expense which Continental nations bestow on military organizations, the Americans seem to throw into the development of the intelligence of the people by a thorough and general system of instruction. With them it is not a question of benevolence and charity, but one of national policy. Their attitude is like that of a good farmer, who spares no expense, or care, in preparing and tilling the land he cultivates, and in choosing the seed he sows. The following brief outline, extracted almost literally from the Report (and the Notes and Appendices thereto), while it will give some idea of the American system, can give none of the valuable information, - the facts, and opinions collated in the book itself.
